Subject: [PATCH 3.18 017/183] net: Reset secmark when scrubbing packet

3.18-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Thomas Graf <tgraf@...g.ch>

[ Upstream commit b8fb4e0648a2ab3734140342002f68fb0c7d1602 ]

skb_scrub_packet() is called when a packet switches between a context
such as between underlay and overlay, between namespaces, or between
L3 subnets.

While we already scrub the packet mark, connection tracking entry,
and cached destination, the security mark/context is left intact.

It seems wrong to inherit the security context of a packet when going
from overlay to underlay or across forwarding paths.
